Guy Gardner records himself in a camera constructed by his ring, when he suddenly receives news about some criminals stealing rakkonium and taking some physicists. Guy stops the thieves but he is criticized by the physicists for putting their lives in danger. He then notices that the thieves were planning to transport the rakkonium to the Unknown Sectors. Guy remembers his pact with Atrocitus and gets an idea. As he takes the thieves to Oa to be put in trial for the crimes, Guy talks with the Guardians and tells them that they should explore the Unknown Sectors. The Guardians agree, shocking Guy. They authorize Guy to perform the expedition. In Daxam, two Daxamites are hiding the unconscious Sodam Yat from a group of unknown people. In the depths of Oa, Ganthet is met by Guy as he opens the Book of the Black. They see Lyssa Drak trapped in its pages. Ganthet reminds Guy about their alliance with Atrocitues. As they leave for the surface, Ganthet tells Guy that he will inform Atrocitus about his expedition to the Unknown Sectors. In Ysmault, Atrocitus and Bleez watch Atrocitus's Wall of Rage, a reminder of how the Manhunters destroyed his people. Atrocitus then orders Bleez to join Guy Gardner in his journey to the Unknown Sectors. As he is about to leave Oa, Guy finishes his recording. In the Unknown Sector, two Green Lanterns return to their leader, Zardor.
